New from our pal Matt Baume:
For over a hundred years, the ballrooms of New York have been host to extravagant, exciting, and sometimes secret queer dance parties. And by looking back at old documentaries like Paris is Burning & The Queen, and at new ones like Kiki, we can start to reconstruct the history of queer dance parties, and ask — after fifty years of ballroom, how much has changed… and how much is still the same as it was a century ago?
